A 20-year-old man met a tragic end being decapitated after sticking his head out of the window of a Gatwick Express train in London.
According to reports the man’s head “flew off” after being hit on an embankment outside . Authorities have said only that the unfortunate young man suffered a fatal “blow” to his head.
Reportedly passengers on a railway platform and 20 others on the train witnessed the mishap.
“He lifted his head out and didn’t notice that the train was coming, so all you see is basically a head gone,” Rianna from Battersea told Wandsworth Radio. “The head flew off. I actually ran because it was disgusting but all I saw was just a head flew away.”
A statement from the British Transport Police said that the man was leaning out a train door-window and was not decapitated, despite the accounts from eyewitnesses, but rather “suffered a blow to the head.”
